Poetry reading on May 22 with local artists

Join us on Thursday for a poetry reading! #poetryreading #bayarea #dalycity

Sarah Jessica Parker speaks at a podium with a quote from the PEN America literary gala that reads “To censor a book is to limit imagination, curiosity, connection, empathy and inspiration." Parker spoke while being awarded the 2025 PEN/Audible Literary Service Award.

Sarah Jessica Parker receives our PEN/Audible Literary Service Award, as an “indispensable defender” of the freedom to read. Parker captured the crisis of censorship in The Librarians, a documentary she executive produced. She also uplifts underrepresented voices through her own imprint SJP Lit.
